2006 Bouchard Finlayson Hannibal

This wine “painting” is two thirds Italian and one third French. It is said that the essence and soul of Italian wine is in its local or regional grape varieties. The excitement of the Hannibal blend lies in the indulgence of pitching these grape varieties together. It’s these “taste colors” which allow for Hannibal to be different and individually unique Full, ripe wild berry and meaty flavors. Long confident mouth feel with plenty of aging potential enhanced by excellent French oak barrel ageing (sixteen months) Sangiovese, Shiraz, Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo, Mourvedré and Barbera.

2008 Bouchard Finlayson Missionvale

Missionvale Chardonnay has long been a wine of intense pride. This is an intensely focused wine of near perfect balance. It is fresh, marginally oaked for six months with an almost white peachy crispness, mixed with a complex yeasty orchestration of flavors. It ends with a tang of richness which lasts a full minute on the palate. With time it will slowly become even more interesting as its nuttiness and complexity continues to develop.

2008 Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon Blanc

More tropical than grassy and more delicate than overpowering; pure fruit tones and good balance. Clean gooseberry aromas with a touch of smoke and mineral character. Acidity in harmony with good strong mouth feel, fresh and enticing. More body than in previous vintages and its palate cleansing freshness lends itself to a range of fish and seafood dishes.

2009 Bouchard Finlayson Blanc de Mer

A kaleidoscope of flavors with citrus blossom bouquets, dominated on the palate by powerful tropical flinty peach tastes with a hint of honey. The wine is rich and inviting. The finish is not quite dry but the palate does finish with excellent length. Served well chilled, it is ideal with oysters, salmon and fresh line fish. Rhine Riesling, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc.
